Chief Strategy Officer, Issue 10

Article views

This issue is concentrating on
HR strategies, something that
is often under-appreciated in
companies today.

Without an effective HR function,
the hiring and management
of employees often falls by the
wayside and overall company
objectives suffer as a result. An
effective HR function, where
employees can feel empowered
and respected is often as
important than the sales
department or teams at the core
of company operations.

Without them the risk of losing
important employees is
increased as their progress,
renumeration and overall
satisfaction can often be
overlooked. This is why having
an effective overall strategy for
an HR department is now more
important than ever.

With increases in the use of data
and analytics in the HR function
across larger companies, the
chance to create great HR
strategies has never been
higher. This also allows the
HR department to become
active in the wider business
goals of the company, tracking
employee progress and allowing
them to prosper in the correct
departments.

With the importance of this role and the elements of it that are
often missed, we thought that
it was important to look at this
division of companies and how
HR strategies can be improved
moving forward.
